Take both filters off find a good pressure washer spray all that black soot out takes about an hour..I reassembled everything back with new clamps it’s been over a year never had anymore issues..🙂

[@tylerslepicka156]

What codes did it have prior?

[@cedthetruth1311]

@@tylerslepicka156 The code says ash filter capacity reached but it gets triggered when the filters are totally clogged and need cleaning..I’ve pressure washed my original filters 3 times since owning the the truck not any problem yet..But if you want the yellow dash light off you will need to have a mechanic with the software to do that..

Yes great job love it and the information is priceless thank you sir.

Great very well explained ❤🙏

Best to get reman filters at the dealer instead of getting your filters cleaned. It costs more but you don't risk having you filters cracked during cleaning. TA cracked both of mine so I had to pay for the cleaning that cracked them, then go buy remans at the dealer. And of course the dealer wouldn't take the cracked ones as a core exchange. I should have just bought remans to begin with.

[@jorgefacio690]

how much did you pay for the reman filters?

[@ancormane524]

Exactly but none does that -_-

[@MrCHAMAKILLE]

Cleaning is way cheaper than buy a new one.

[@ancormane524]

@@MrCHAMAKILLE yup only bad thing is next time they go bad cuz they go bad faster from cleaning youre cores gonna be useless so not really brotha but each their own

Thank you !

[@user-nh6vu3qr7b]

I seen shops that can push the scr filters back & still can be cleaned without replacing the box.

[@lh5567]

About how many DPF’s do you guys change a month? And what makes of trucks have the most problems with DPFs? Great video! Thank you

I had question for surging dd13 engines. I replaced fuel quantity valve but I still have a surge. Any recommendations on what else to test?

[@Pink_Static]

The way I "cleaned" my DD15 filters was to remove them, pressure wash them, then take a sharrp1/3 inch wood drill bit and drill about 30 holes in each filter. Still has backpressure so the soot sensor will see a pressure drop but not too much and will think the filters are clean...BAM...you got a MUCH better running truck. Also consider bypassing the 7th injector so if it ever does call for a "regen" it will think it is regening but its not. it cant with no diesel and the 1/2 inch holes are too big to clog up. Even if they did clog up spend a saturday cleaning them out.

[@davidfs.6233]

Drills holes both filters??

[@davidfs.6233]

Did you drill holes in doc filters??Ir just dpf filters..I need to clean my dpf..I Have fault code..thy

[@Pink_Static]

@@davidfs.6233 YES the ceramic DOC and DPF. I ended up removing the downstream sensor from the exhaust to clear air and plugging the sensor hole with a bad sensor. The sensor sees clear air as cleaner and thinks its working. I used two long hose clamps to attach the sensor the the OUTSIDE of the exhaust pipe right next to the sensor hole so that the sensor sense heat of the pipe and reads no NOX as the DPF working.

[@Pink_Static]

@@davidfs.6233 Drill in both but remember, they are pricey if you ever want to replace them they aint cheap. I have just pulled my filter and DOC and had them cleaned at shop in the past. They charged me $200. You could also take them to a machine shop and ask them to run them in their block cleaner

[@davidfs.6233]

Okay,Thy very much,I will pressure wash both this wknd.I have fault code spn 3720,dmi15..2017 cascadia dd15,Ex Walmart trk,Original dpf filters,556890 miles.

[@ibrahimiraq1979]

Did can i do anything if the diagnostic system showed up on the inlet pressure sensor read 2 or less when I try to do region, and we change the pressure sensor but still showing same thing, please help me if can I do something. Thank you

[@nskgraff]

How often you recommend How many miles every , drive local in L.A

[@rpsingh3616]

Hi, i replaced both filters, but now when i pick the water load, every time it needs to regen the truck, any solutions

[@Itsyogurt444]

Hey Francisco What software do you use to do the diagnose on the truck?

[@JoseMartinez-jl1mk]

DDDL 8.XX

[@simonsays6924]

Whats the typical lifespan of SCR ( how many miles before one box need to be replaced)?

[@jorgefacio690]

mine gave out a little over a million miles

[@rigobertohernandez2524]

I also agreed get the reman filters I bought them at freightliner in Orlando for $750 a piece 2 years ago. Better than sending them to get cleaned cause it could take a few days to get them back.

[@la2toronto789]

Is 1.4 doc inlet pressure bad? I put used dpf filters and I don’t know if these dpf filters are bad or if the doc is gone and bad

Should I do a DOC face plug cleaning?

[@la2toronto789]

I have nox conversion low

[@nattydreadlocks1973]

@@la2toronto789 1.4 is bad for all years. Your DOC is clogged. Faceplug cleaning is necessary.

[@la2toronto789]

@@nattydreadlocks1973 spoke to a DPF specialist and he keeps saying everything is fine, I recommended a DOC clean and we ran regen and I noticed the 1.4 pressure, I am not sure how it finished at the end of the regen, but I was still concerned and he said no you don’t need it, the numbers look alright. If the doc is plugged could that be throwing the nox conversion low? Or what are symptoms of bad doc?

@@nattydreadlocks1973 and is there any risk of running the doc face plug clean?

[@scav3155]

Why are the SCR filters not sold as a separate item?

[@JoseMartinez-jl1mk]

It is combined in the one box. You see the bottom cylinders. That is it

[@scav3155]

I guess my question is why not make them separate pieces like the dpf since the one box itself is such an expensive part.

[@foltzenlogel]

​@@scav3155- You answered your own question.

[@et9151]

Just delete it

[@foltzenlogel]

All well and good until you get caught. Not to mention once you delete the system dealerships are "technically" not allowed to work on them anymore.

[@et9151]

@@foltzenlogel the fines are cheaper the the repair also, many dealer will work on it as long as it has nothing to do with emissions and when you own the truck the dealer is the last place I want to bring it. Once it’s delete the truck will be less likely to brake down anyway

How do you keep these dps maintained running in city’s

[@supreetdhillon9665]

Don’t leave the truck on idle. It produces more soot.
